Section 4: Optional Equipment
Hydraulic Control Options
There are four options available.
Solenoid Control with Standard Deck Option:
Cutting deck is supplied without gauge wheels. Two duplex outlets are required to operate arm cylinders, deck pivot cylinder and breakaway cylinder. Arm and deck cylinders are solenoid activated with momentary push button switches at the control stick. Breakaway cylinder is controlled by tractor lever.
Tractor Control with Standard Deck Option:
Cutting deck is supplied without gauge wheels. Four tractor duplex outlets are required to operate the arm cylinders, deck pivot cylinder and breakaway cylinder. Tractor levers operator all cylinders.
Solenoid Control with Valve Float Deck Option:
Cutting deck is supplied with gauge wheels for controlling deck height and angle in lieu of momentary push button switches. Two duplex outlets are required to operate arm cylinders, deck pivot cylinder and breakaway cylinder. Arm and deck cylinders are solenoid activated with momentary push button switches at the control stick. An “ON/OFF” push button Float Switch is included on the control stick to bypass “ARM 2” and “DECK” solenoids allowing the deck to float on its gauge wheels. Breakaway cylinder is controlled by tractor lever.
Tractor Control with Hose Float Deck Option:
Cutting deck is supplied with gauge wheels for controlling deck height and angle in lieu of control levers. Four duplex outlets are required at the tractor to operate the arm cylinders, deck pivot cylinder and breakaway cylinder. Tractor levers operator all cylinders. “ARM 2” and “DECK” control levers are set in float position when carrying the deck on its gauge wheels.
Operator Protective Shield Option
An optional operator protective shield is available for use on tractors not equipped with cabs or other protective shielding. This shield is a “universal” type and is suitable for attachment to a conventional Roll Over Protective Structure (ROPS) that is already attached to the tractor. It is constructed of an extruded aluminum frame and glazed with 1/4" clear lexan polycarbonate.
Mounting hardware will permit attachment to ROPS having

Protective Shield Installation
Refer to Figure
1.Measure width and thickness of the tractor ROPS bar to determine if the clamping hardware supplied will be adequate.
2.Compare parts list and quantities with parts received. Report any missing or damaged items to your dealer.
NOTE: To determine the best location for the protective shield, the cutter should be connected to the tractor, parallel arms should be fully extended and the deck should be approximately horizontally level.
3.Carefully remove the shield from the shipping carton and temporarily position it on the inside surface of the ROPS bar. Locate shield forward/back and up/down to provide the best overall coverage for the tractor operator. Use a spirit level to level the shield before marking. Mark frame location with a pencil on each side of the ROPS bar; and mark vertical ROPS location on the shield frame.
4.Position protective shield (#5) on a flat work surface. Locate one of the flatbars (#4) next to the pencil marks to determine which set of holes will clear the vertical marks for the ROPS location. Mark hole location and drill two 1/4" diameter holes through the shield frame. Similarly mark and drill two additional holes for the lower clamp location.
5.Attach shield to the inside surface of the ROPS bar with 1/4" x 4" cap screw (#6), 1/4" flat washer (#3), 1/4" lockwasher (#2) and 1/4" nut (#6).
